The streamer is incredibly popular, and the top spender on her is vying to pamper her.

Chapter 421 Wanting to Make Amends

"I'm also in Beijing, could you...?"

"Meet him?"

Su Xiaoyao's sudden invitation left Jiang Zhouzhou silent.

Gu Nanfeng's gaze fell on Jiang Zhouzhou's cheek through the screen.

The smile on her lips had faded, and her thick eyelashes drooped slightly, concealing the darkness deep in her eyes—a sign of her bad mood.

The fans in the live stream didn't know the real relationship between Zhouzhou and Su Xiaoyao. When they saw that she was going to meet Jiang Zhouzhou, they subconsciously thought that she was planning to ride on Zhouzhou's popularity offline.

Jiang Zhouzhou lowered her eyes and looked directly at Su Xiaoyao: "Do you want to see me? Or is someone else wanting to see me?"

She guessed that Su Xiaoyao already knew about their relationship.

Caught off guard by the direct question, Su Xiaoyao's expression flashed with panic as she instinctively turned her head to look in another direction.

A few seconds later.

A figure appeared in Su Xiaoyao's live stream.

Her face was not shown, but the clothes she wore were luxurious and elegant.

A gentle voice came through the screen.

"It's me who wants to see you."

Let's meet! Zhouzhou.

……

The next day at dawn.

After Jiang Zhouzhou got up, she drew back the curtains. The snow outside had already stopped, and there was no snow on the ground.

Xiao Dian originally planned to go with her, but was called away by Grandpa Sheng with a phone call.

According to the old butler, Old Master Sheng got angry for some reason and smashed all the walnuts that the young master had personally picked for him.

Having no other choice, Sheng Jingyao could only arrange for a driver to take Jiang Zhouzhou there, and then come back to pick her up after he had appeased the old man.

The car moved slowly forward, the pedestrians on the street were sparse, and the once bustling shops were extremely deserted.

Jiang Zhouzhou arrived at the agreed-upon restaurant and, led by a waiter, went to an elegantly decorated private room.

There was already someone sitting in the private room. When she saw Jiang Zhouzhou, a gentle and friendly smile appeared on the woman's face.

"Zhouzhou, so... this is what you look like!"

Her voice carried a hint of emotion.

She had never seen her daughter, whom she had carried for ten months, since her divorce from her ex-husband.

More than twenty years have passed in a flash, and time has etched its marks on her face, while the little baby in swaddling clothes has grown into a beautiful young woman.

Jiang Zhouzhou's gaze lingered on the woman's face, scrutinizing her with curiosity, and she didn't look away for a long time.

Her parents divorced peacefully shortly after she was born, so she has no memory of her mother.

Only that faded family photo allowed her to see what her mother looked like.

The young and beautiful woman in the photo now sits in front of me, and even though she uses expensive skincare products to maintain her appearance every day, her face is still slowly aging under the cruelty of time.

You look like your father!

The woman continued with a sigh, "I heard your father is very successful. You must have been doing quite well these past few years."

Jiang Zhouzhou's eyes trembled, and she finally looked away from her face.

She sat opposite the woman and said calmly, "He's just like you, indifferent to me."

Upon hearing her answer, the woman's expression stiffened slightly.

A flicker of struggle, hesitation, and panic crossed his eyes.

But there was no regret or self-blame.

"I...I don't know. I thought your father would treat you well after his remarriage. After all, I heard he married a rich woman and his business is thriving. That's why I..."

The woman's eyes were red, and tears welled up in them.

"If I had known he would be so irresponsible, I would have definitely taken you with me in the first place."

She raised her hand to wipe the moisture from the corner of her eyes, and when she looked at Jiang Zhouzhou again, her eyes were filled with more heartache.

Jiang Zhouzhou remained unmoved. Whether it was Jiang Tao or the woman in front of her, their deep regret seemed utterly ridiculous in her eyes.

During the age when she needed her parents' company the most, the two completely disappeared from her life, and their occasional contact was always filled with harsh words.

now……

What is this?

"Ms. Wu, what is it that you want to see me about?" Jiang Zhouzhou asked bluntly.

Her cold attitude seemed to pierce the woman's heart, and her face showed a dejected expression. "I just want to see you."

"Actually, I've always worried about you and missed you all these years, but... because of the problems between your father and me, I've also hated you."

“I’m sure that family never told you that your father cheated on you while I was pregnant, which is why I divorced him without hesitation after you were born.”

“I hate the Jiang family, your grandmother, your father, and I even impose this hatred on you.”

"I know it's wrong, but I can't control myself and I can't help but say those hurtful things to you."

"Zhouzhou, Mom is sorry."

Before she knew it, the woman was already in tears.

Jiang Zhouzhou silently handed her a tissue, which the woman took and used to wipe away her tears.

After she wiped away her tears, Jiang Zhouzhou said calmly, "Jiang Tao has already told me all of these things."

The woman paused in her hand movements, and her brow furrowed slightly.

Jiang Zhouzhou continued, "Perhaps in your hearts, no matter what happens, all your parents need is an apology, and your children must forgive you."

"But... it's not you who are hurt."

"Not all harm can be erased with a simple apology, nor can it be treated as if it never happened just because you are parents."

Jiang Zhouzhou came here to see her simply to see what she looked like.

The family photo had faded from her daily caresses, and the faces on it had become blurry.

Later, she threw it into the trash can, where it became a pile of garbage.

She doesn't need cheap fatherly love now, nor does she need belated motherly love.

The woman opened her mouth, but seeing that Jiang Zhouzhou's attitude remained unmoved, she said, "Zhouzhou, I want to make it up to you."
